Chiral Quantum Entanglement Transfer with Giant Atoms

Abstract:We investigate entanglement transfer in a multi-giant-atom waveguide system. By tailoring chiral spontaneous emission and exploiting dark-state dynamics, the setup enables perfect, unidirectional sequential or selective transfer of quantum states and their associated entanglement. The distance between two entangled atoms, i.e., the entanglement length, can be dynamically adjusted, allowing robust conversion between long-range and short-range entanglement during propagation. The system inherently converges to a dark state, guaranteeing high-fidelity directional transfer. When the additional phase is modulated as a periodic piecewise function, spatially separated giant atoms exhibit stable, nearly lossless state exchange and maintain steady entanglement even under non-Markovian conditions. This behavior mimics conventional braided architectures without suffering from propagation delays or spatial restrictions. Our proposal offers a scalable pathway for continuous long-distance entanglement transport and resilient state exchange in quantum networks.
